The Best Redneck Movies of All Time

In the recent spirit of insulting whole groups of people in one fell blog-swoop, I'm posting (with a tip o' the sweat-soaked John Deere cap to Linda) a list of the most beloved redneck movies of all time. Now, you can't get this collection anywhere else ... only in your spam. Act now, and for $19.95, I'll send you -- absolutely free -- wax "purdy lips" just in time for Halloween!

ABOUT ME

I have written 14 books and spent a career in editing. I'm also an award-winning newspaper writer and editor, and a widely published book critic and essayist at newspapers such as the Washington Post, San Francisco Chronicle, Denver Post and Chicago Sun-Times.

My bestselling THE DARKEST NIGHT, is an intimate true-crime/memoir about a monstrous crime in my childhood that left two friends dead and a whole town's peace shattered. Legendary authors such as Ann Rule and Vincent Bugliosi -- as well as media critics -- hailed it as a direct literary descendant of Truman Capote's "In Cold Blood."
